My only concern is that it is a domestic model i.e. comes with cheaper finishing. Does anybody know the signs to look for to ensure it's an export model? thx You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I got the alpine white model, only $400 CDN with a hard shell case, I guess that would be just under $400 USD. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

If it sounds good and feels right, who cares if it's from Africa or USA? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
